这个小房子位于大阪密集区的一条狭窄的街道上。我们参与了这个项目,从寻找地块开始,和客户一起参观了一些潜在的地点。最终,我们选择了这个宽3.74米、深16.31米的地点。客户的要求之一是,房子要提供展示他们的照片、图片和装饰品的地方。然而,这块地的面积很小,意味着居住空间必须是紧凑和多层的,其中一些空间要分配给楼梯。此外,这个拥挤的住宅区几乎没有机会获得良好的外部景观。

This small house is located on a narrow street in a dense Osaka neighborhood. We were involved in the project starting with the search for a lot and visited a number of potential sites with the client. Ultimately, we selected this sited measuring 3.74 m across by 16.31 m deep. One of the client’s requests was that the house provide places to display their photos, pictures, and decorations. The lot’s small size, however, meant the living space had to be compact and multi-story, with some of the space allocated to a staircase. Furthermore, the crowded residential neighborhood promised little chance of good exterior views.

作为同时解决所有这些问题的策略,我们设计了一个 “架子楼梯”,除了提供有趣的室内景观外,还可以作为展示空间和生活空间。架子-楼梯在结构上独立于整个建筑。这种独立性在视觉上通过在楼梯和它前后的分层地板之间插入的缝隙来表达。阳光通过这些缝隙顶部的天窗愉快地过滤。

As a strategy for solving all of these problems at once, we devised a “shelf-staircase” that serves as both display space and living space, in addition to providing interesting interior views. The shelf-staircase is structurally independent from the overall building. This independence is visually expressed through slits inserted between the staircase and the split-level floors in front of and behind it. Sunlight filters pleasantly through skylights at the top of these slits.

书架式楼梯由通道、书架、书桌和生活空间组成。上下楼梯时的景色让人联想到在森林中的三维移动。为了在居民的日常生活中发挥核心作用,该结构具有很强的实用性。他们在架子上展示的物品,从鞋子到洗漱用品和洗衣用品,创造了一种轻松的家庭氛围。

The shelf-staircase is comprised of passages, shelves, a desk, and living space. The views as one goes up and down the stairs are reminiscent of moving three-dimensionally through a forest. Designed to function centrally in the residents’ daily life, the structure is highly practical. The items they have displayed on the shelves, from shoes to toiletries and laundry supplies, create a relaxed, homey mood.

在架子-楼梯的顶部是一个书房,书桌与架子融为一体。从缝隙中射出的柔和的自然光在结构上投下了斑驳的图案,就像透过树木的光线一样,使它成为一个舒适的地方,住户们有时会暂停下来,坐在柔软的松木踏板上看书。它还有一个功能:为最近加入家庭的猫科动物提供一个巨大的猫塔。

At the top of the shelf-staircase is a study with a desk that melds into the shelving. The soft natural light from the slits casts a mottled pattern like light filtering through trees onto the structure, making it a comfortable place where the residents sometimes pause to sit on one of the soft pine treads and read a book. It serves one more function as well: a giant cat tower for the recent feline addition to the family.
